laplace(shape: Sequence[int] = [], dtype: Dtype | None = float32, loc: float = 0.0, scale: float = 1.0, key: array | None = None, stream: None | Stream | Device = None) → array#

Sample numbers from a Laplace distribution.

Parameters:

  • shape (list(int), optional) – Shape of the output. Default: ().

  • dtype (Dtype, optional) – Type of the output. Default: float32.

  • loc (float, optional) – Mean of the distribution. Default: 0.0.

  • scale (float, optional) – The scale “b” of the Laplace distribution. Default:1.0.

  • key (array, optional) – A PRNG key. Default: None.

Returns:

The output array of random values.

Return type:

array
